A solid crime drama

A refreshingly good movie that relies on a solid story rather than the usual over the top shoot outs, outlandish villains or ridiculous car chases to entertain.

Not all the convicts are bad guys and not all the cops are good guys.

Cast is good all round. Standouts are Joel Kinnaman and Rosamund Pike.

Worth a watch...

Nice to see it finally be released.

Farfetched but entertaining thriller, tightly written. I didn't know it was based on a Swedish novel (it's also reminiscent of the Falk movies in which Kinnaman had a sort of breakthrough in his native Sweden)

Leaves an impression, but requires due attentiveness. I rewatched, had it confused with sniper scene from movie.
